Construction

We are committed to managing your project in a competent and timely manner.  We pride ourselves in giving attention to not only the overall program, but also the finer details of construction. 

Quality Building

The projects we have completed to date stand as testimony to our high standard of construction monitoring and workmanship quality. We offer a winning combination of high quality, comprehensive solutions paired with efficient time management and building project value.

post quake

Christchurch earthquake response

After the Canterbury Earthquakes we expanded our operations in order to assist with the rebuild. As our main offices are located in East Christchurch (where much of the earthquake damage occurred) we have been amongst the post-quake action from the very beginning. One of our main post-quake projects was the re-establishment of Eastgate Mall. We are also heavily involved with EQR residential and commercial building repairs.
